Hi! We are Whitney and Britny! The two best friends and sisters in Christ behind the blog. We met the first week of our freshman year back in 2008. It took all of two minutes to realize how close we were going to become, and we’ve been inseparable ever since. Now here we are almost 10 years later and continue to share beliefs, morals and of course our secrets. After all this time, we finally decided to take on a new dream together.. Which is how Grace and Shiplap came to be.
We are busy moms and wives trying to live a life God called us to. To live a beautiful and bountiful lifestyle that we are happy with and glad to share with you guys! From home décor, to DIYS, awesome recipes and all things family and faith. Expect it all when you’ve got us around!
So thanks for joining us on Grace and Shiplap. We’re looking forward to seeing God work through our blog and in y’alls lives!
MEET WHITNEY
Hey y’all! I’m Whitney the shiplap of Grace and Shiplap. I’m a young twenty something year old stay at home mom/wife living with my active duty Airman, Daniel, our little princess Anastasia, and our little furbaby Rosco. And all in the good ol’ midwest. After five years of marriage, we finally decided to move out of the urban life and move where we could start our own little farm life, while also running our rental business, working with the Air Force and trying to live a lifestyle that we love and one that God sees fit. I am firm believer in The Lord. I believe He is using my life as an example of true and tested faith. I’m not perfect and I mess up more so than not. But I strive to be the woman of God that He has called me to be. And to show our world what God’s love looks like. So as a house wife I have a deep desire for a home with open doors and full of love and laughter and of course beautiful interior design! Honestly, I just wanna be Joanna Gaines. BUT, that’s not the case. So, you guys have me. And we are going to have an awesome time! So let’s learn together and make mistakes together. Growing in our faith, in our homes and with our families. All the while enjoying every moment of it. And giving all the glory to who truly deserves it.
MEET BRITNY
Hello there. I’m Britny, the grace of Grace and Shiplap. I’m a wife to my high school sweetheart/Firefighter/Marine, a mommy to the cutest little toddler named Samuel, and a business owner of Wonderwood Photography. After 4 years living the military lifestyle in Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, God decided to rock our world and called us back home to Missouri. We are starting over, but it’s an adventure. Currently my days are lived out in a little town home rental, filled with lots of editing photos, changing diapers, forgetting to have date nights, attending weekly bible study, and dreaming about my future home. But most importantly, attempting to keep God at the center of it all. While most of my thoughts are consumed with mom life and home decorating, what I desire most is to live a life worthy of God’s Grace. Through my marriage, my motherhood, my friendships, and the everyday in the mundane. I’m by no means a perfect person. In fact, I get it wrong more than I get it right. And I’m going to be real, and vulnerable, and encouraging and convicting. So if you’re a broken sinner like me, and just trying to figure out how to do this thing called life, then follow along as we share our lives, and find that God is the joy in it all!
